Abstract:

This article depicts developed biomechanical system designed for measuring the breaking force of the inguinal hernia mesh according to its fixation method - stitching and gluing. Authors describe in details structure of the laboratory stand which objective was to simulate Lichtenstein tension-free repair conditions as well as facilitate presentation of the methodology of conducted experiments. Statistical analysis of obtained data was performed to confirm usefulness of both fixation techniques. The goal of the presented in this work biomechanical system was to verify the reliability of inguinal hernia mesh fixation methods and to reach conclusions that could be later put into clinical practice.
